Memorandum to Mr. Wick
Re: Meet the Press, Channel 4 TV
, Meredith claimed that Negroes have never engaged in'_ violence although the white people did. He said that if the whitepeople would not remove the killers of the Negroes, then the blackTpeople should do so. He said he knew and the white people knew whothe killers of the Negroes were but since the whites refused to do" any"-;_thing, the Negroes should arm themselves and do the job the whites=1-efused to do. Stokley Carmichael agreed with Meredith, stating thatI the Negro, while accounting for 10% of the population, was so located' in cities throughout the country that if the 180 million white peoplegturned on the Negro, all would go down together. He noted the Armywas integrated and that 40% of the Army in Vietnam was Negro and_ they would not permit thewhites to attack Negroes without retaliating. Roy Wilkins said Carmichael abounds in the provocative statement and ";- that no one believes the Negro would take up arms. Carmichael notedthat Students Nonviolent Coordinating Committee would attend the WarTribunal trial of President Johnson called for by Sir Bertrand Russell.Carmichael said he would like to attend the trial as he felt the Vietnam
War was immoral.¢

Martin Luther King, J r. , stated the rioting must en=" outdemonstrations must continue as the latter serve to call attention 2-I» u -:-.1- and bring the parties to the conference table. Roy Wilkins agreed -.=.ritE~.
n: Dr. King and noted that adherence to law and order is not a handir xp.King felt the injunction issued against him in Chicago was uncons1t:=;utir=:12 1but he would abide by it because he has been having discussions with 1: 1 rleaders and real estate men and others of good will. He noted the 31:1?!of the North toward the Negro, differed from that of the South in it-at i; 'South the hatred of the mob was aided by law enforcement which -1;; not "in the North. As to the Civil Rights Bill, King felt it would not ch. 1-gehearts of people but that the legislation would alter peoples habits -.1."attitudes which eventually would bring about the aims of the civil .1 "=.ght;§92 leaders. King decried programmatic action around nonviolent activity, noting there was a difference between aggressive and defensive nonviolence.
1g Floyd McKissick felt nonviolence was something out of the past and that- the Negro would not stand idly by when attacked although he believed in
nonviolence until he was attacked.
.' Q A yStokley Carmichael stated Negroes fightingin Vietnam are~ l hired mercenaries Because the military services intimate to the Negrothat a method to improve his lot in life would be to join the military which1 necessarily involves killing people. Carmichael noted that he would notQ join the military and stated he was a citizen of the United States. He said§ he would not go to Vietnam and he urged others not to go.

In an unpublicized meeting, Stokely Carmichael metwith Elijah Muhammad on August 7, 1966, at Muhammad's - '.residence, 4847 South Woodlawn Avenue, Chicago, Illinois.Specific items discussed are unknown. However, a confidentialsource advised Carmichael will not obtain any cooperationfrom Muhammad in any civil rights or black power struggle.According to the source, Muhammad is always the dominant, 'figure and the only way Carmichael can cooperate withMuhammad is to become a member ofrthe Nation of Islam and-be subservient to Muhammad. Carmichael refused to do thisand nothing positive came from this meeting although they
